Eating Eden: How Our Plates Shape the Planet
What we choose to eat is more than personal—it’s planetary. This Sunday, we reflect on the hidden environmental impact of animal agriculture and the ways our everyday choices ripple outward into the earth we share. With compassion and curiosity, we’ll explore how we might live in greater harmony with the web of life. Sermon topic won by Maureen M. at the Fall auction.
We Did this Hard Thing
Throughout our lives we encounter challenges and, hopefully, we meet them. Our congregation did with the building of a new sanctuary! Come celebrate the lessons we humans learn by doing hard things.
Love Letter
What’s so special about a love letter? Love letters encapsulate a moment in time-a keepsake and a tool for strengthening bonds and celebrating memories. With profound gratitude, Wendy will deliver her final sermon as your intern minister.
Imagination: The Original Lab Equipment
We often think of imagination – the dreaming up of fun ideas – as antithetical to science. But one cannot really exist without the other. Come explore the fun of science as we imagine what it can do for our planet, our lives and the whole world!
Question Box Sunday!
It’s our annual “Question Box Sunday!” You can ask Rev. Sian anything you like about theology, ministry, our Unitarian Universalist history or values, or even the meaning of life! Bring your questions and she will do her best to answer. But don’t be surprised if she asks you questions, too!
Imagination as a Spiritual Practice
Have you ever been told to stop daydreaming? What if you had permission and even encouragement to start daydreaming again? How can we center love in imagining a new future together?
Spring Forward
Spring is the season of Hope. We celebrate Naw Ruz, Ramadan, Passover, Easter, and the Vernal Equinox. This morning we will talk about finding equanimity in unsettling times through ancient stories and deepening personal practices.
The Well of the Spirit
What happens when our spirits start to feel run down by all the chaos surrounding us in the world? How do we make sense of what’s happening outside of us–and how it affects us on the inside? Spiritual practices are not just about discovery–they can help us re-discover a core self that can feel lost in difficult times.
Easter, Flower Communion and Earth Day
It’s both Earth Day and Easter, so what better time than to celebrate the Unitarian Universalist’s celebration of Flower Communion? Come celebrate renewals, the earth and the diversity that makes our faith tradition so unique!
